Oleksiy Kuleba, head of Kiev’s Regional State Administration, said a town northwest of the capital was “almost completely destroyed”.
“There is no water and electricity there. There is no Borodyanka, which is almost completely destroyed. The city center is just awful. Borodyanka is under the influence of Russian troops; they control this place,” Kuleba said.
Kuleba stated earlier today on his Telegram account that Russian troops appeared to take over a psychiatric hospital with hundreds of patients, but now they have left. Russian forces are still in the region, he said.
“These people are mostly sick, they are mostly people with special needs. But these are our people and we cannot and will never leave them,” Kuleba previously said.
“Today we don’t know how to evacuate these people, how to help them,” he said, adding that they were running out of medicine and water.
After a missile attack on a large apartment block in Borodyanka on March 2, the Ukrainian State Emergency Service told CNN yesterday that people may still be trapped in the wreckage of the building.
Borodyanka has seen persistent bombing in recent days, as have other small towns around.
